Seksjon 1 Innhold

The contact details ("kontaktinfomasjon") that are displayed are taken from the National Population Registry and the Digital Contact Registry, and are not stored on helsenorge.no. If you notice any errors in the information, there is a link to a page where you can edit the information.

The notification settings ("varseloppsett") enable you to determine whether you receive notifications by text message (SMS) or e-mail when you receive information on helsenorge.no, as well as the type of notifications that you receive. Unless you select a different option, notifications will be sent by text message.

If you have parental responsibility for one or more children, you will receive the same type of notifications for them as you do for yourself.

Personal data

Seksjon 2 Innhold

​This page ("Personopplysninger") contains information about you that may be important for health professionals to know.

Data in the National Population Registry ("Opplysninger i folkeregisteret")

Here you can see what data is registered about you in the National Population Registry, and you can easily check to see whether it is correct.

Next of kin ("Pårørende")

It is important for healthcare professionals to know who you want them to contact if anything happens to you. If you have a summary care record ("kjernejournal"), you should therefore enter information on your next of kin and how they can be contacted.

You can enter several people and indicate who of them you want to designate as your closest next of kin. Healthcare professionals will always attempt to contact your closest next of kin first.

If you change your mind and would like someone else to be designated as your closest next of kin, you must remove these people from the list, enter the details of the other people you want to be registered as your closest next of kin, and then re-enter the previous ones as ordinary next of kin if you wish.

Employers ("Arbeidsgivere")

Enter your employer’s contact details if you wish healthcare professional to have this information. It can be useful for healthcare professionals to know who your employer is, for example if you need a sick-note.

Communication ("Kommunikasjon")

Here, you can indicate whether you have any special needs regarding communication, etc. This can be useful for healthcare professionals to know, so that they can meet your needs.

Power of attorney

Seksjon 5 Innhold

You must be over 16 years of age in order to give someone power of attorney ("fullmakt") to use services on behalf of other people. The recipient must be over 18 years of age.

You can choose what the power of attorney covers by selecting one or more of the three service areas. The power of attorney will automatically apply to new services within the selected areas as they become available.

This option is suitable for those who now and in the future would like as much help as possible to keep track of their health situation through digital services. If services which are considered to be a significant change are added, you may need to confirm the power of attorney again.
